As for books, go to Fry's or CompUSA and look in the bargain section for
anything cheap...and READ! READ READ! and it will start to sink in, and stay
focused, unlike me I get side tracked on other things at times.

Can anyone recommend any good books or free online tutorials to learn
VB.net

If you want to take a quick look at Visual Basic, I currently would
install the Express beta and play around with it:

<URL:http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/express/vbasic/>

Alternatively, you can order the trial version of VS.NET:

<URL:http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/productinfo/trial/>

General information about VB can be found here:

<URL:http://msdn.microsoft.com/vbasic/>

For beginners' tasks, VB at the Movies may be helpful:

<URL:http://msdn.microsoft.com/vbasic/atthemovies/>

The Visual Basic .NET Resource Kit contains a test version of VS.NET,
some free components and a lot of training material:

<URL:http://msdn.microsoft.com/vbasic/vbrkit/>

Quickstarts on various topics of the .NET Framework can be found here:

<URL:http://samples.gotdotnet.com/quickstart/>

For VB6 programmers, there are separate documents about the switch to
VB.NET:

VB.NET for VB Veterans

I am just learning VB.net and am having difficulty with the language.
I found two authors who speak to the console language separate from
the window application event language.
1) Jesse Liberty
2) Paul Kimmel
Try a search on the on an electronic library for access to resources
via e-books.
Good Luck!
